The Tingler (1959)


An obsessed pathologist discovers and captures a parasitic creature that grows when fear grips its host.

Silly and a bit seedy plot is slowly told with some singular effective thrills and a creepy performance by Vincent Price.

Halliwell (no star): "Ridiculous shocker with dull handling but effective moments."

Maltin**1/2: "Preposterous but original shocker..."
